I have been enjoying some really great omelettes lately! The omelettes that I have been making have been packed with flavour and in fact with the ingredients in them they have been looking a lot more like pizzas. The thought of a pizza like omelette was perfect because the kimchi, bacon and shiitake mushroom pizza that I had made earlier in the week had disappeared way too quickly and I was left craving more. I immediatly set about drawing up a recipe and I started with the basic ingredients of the pizza.

The omelettes that I have been making have been one pan omelettes where I cooked the ingredients and then poured the eggs over them. I made sure that the ingredients in them were large enough to peak through the eggs when I poured them into the pan so that you could see them when eating the omelette. This time however the ingredients did not have the height required so I was forced to change tactics a bit. It was easy enough though and I just cooked the bacon, mushrooms and kimchi and set them aside added the eggs and let them start to cook before adding the cheese followed by the rest of the ingredients so that they cooked into the top of the omelette as the eggs set. The kimchi, bacon and shiitake mushroom omelette turned out great! The flavour combination was of course amazing and it really worked well held together by warm fluffy eggs and melted cheddar cheese. Given that the omelette version is so easy to make I think that I will be making it fairly often from now on!

Great recipe! I love omelettes. I love throwing in whatever I happen to have on hand. It's easy to creative and original with omelettes! This combinations looks amazing, and I LOVE mushrooms. One of my favorite "off the cuff" omelettes involved avacado, zucchini, and cream cheese!

Kevin, all these years I've been peeking at your blog, constantly amazed at the sheer variety of things you make. Two questions for you: 1) How do you manage the ginormous pantry you must have? (like keeping all those ingredients fresh and on hand, etc.) and 2) How do you deal with leftovers if you cook something different every single day? Because I find those are the two biggest challenges for me when I try to make a bunch of different kinds of things each week.

tina: 1. My pantry is spread between the cupboard above the stove and most of my closet has been over taken with food stuff. I have way to many ingredients lying around! 2. I plan my entire weeks worth of meals including all of the leftovers. I am usually pretty good at estimating how many serving a recipe will make and I pencil all of the leftovers into my meal plan. I normally bring the leftovers to work for lunch.

I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.
